After working in the hospitality industry, he took a chance and bet on himself. In 1991, he launched his nonprofit, Career Concepts for Youth, Inc., authored several books including his newest book titled Life Skills, and has impacted thousands of students by encouraging them to stay in school by demonstrating how education can lead to fulfilling careers and lives.
